Smarsh Launches New Personal Archive Solution for Email

May 21 15

Smarsh introduced its new Personal Archive, an add-on module to The Archiving Platform that gives end users fast and easy self-service access to their own archived electronic communications and files. There is a clear need for an employee self-service solution to help offload some of the IT burden of locating and restoring historical messages and content. The average employee spends about 28% of each week managing email, an effort made increasingly difficult by the rapid adoption of mobile devices in the workplace, along with exponential growth in communication channels and data volumes. The Smarsh Personal Archive gives employees the ability to retrieve archived emails themselves from their desktops, laptops, or mobile devices (including iPhone and Android), all web browsers and a Microsoft Outlook plugin.
